alright m8, welcome......look under performance stats at the top of your screen and type in corsa. It will then give you a list of results of what different corsas can do in terms of 0-60 times.
10 seconds does seem fast for a 1.0.....are you sure your mate started counting from 0mph and not 55?

your car really really does do 120mph, sorry, i doubt that the f10/f11/f12 gearbox is even geared to do that
a 1.6 gsi tops out a 120
the book figure on a lupo tdi is 12 secs, and it is sooooooooooo fast compred the the 12 volts ive driven

..Oh yea!!! My mate down in Worthing, whos a mechanic apprentic thingy, said it could be down to an uprated gearbox or somthing along those lines, cant really remember... you jogged my memory. Really have no idea, all I know is my car does exactly what ive said it does... ive been driving it for about two years now. I remember it vivdly, travelling up to the NEC for Bike 2004, ranged from 115 to 120. No bull sh*t.

I'll try and check for the f numbers you talk of. No NOS, and yea, it was a pretty steep hill, not that steep though.
